If there is one investigative journalist left in Washington, D.C. who is not a court eunuch for this abysmal administration, he or she should be jumping on that last line immediately. What we will soon have before us is a circular firing squad of historic proportions as the administration attempts to blame a rogue intelligence agency for the decline of America’s world reputation and vice versa.

This isn’t funny. It’s quite horrifying and depressing. What we are witnessing is the disintegration of our country under the governance of an absolutely incompetent president and administration.

Beyond that hopeless administration, however, is the larger question of what to do about the NSA and its mammoth spy capabilities. This is no simple question, considering the reality of murderous Islamic terrorism is still very much with us, perhaps even growing.

It’s no easy task, but all of this will have to be worked out and rationalized so that private citizens can feel as if they are indeed private citizens — and our allies can again feel as if they are our allies.

Toward that end, according to the same WSJ report, a government review in underway. As with most of these reviews, the committee consists of familiar names who can be relied upon not to rock boats and to protect the president:

Its members include Richard Clarke, who was a counterterrorism chief for former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush ; former Central Intelligence Agency Deputy Director Michael Morell ; University of Chicago Law School professor Geoffrey Stone ; former White House regulatory official Cass Sunstein ; and former Clinton and Obama administration economic and privacy official Peter Swire.

Speaking of the president, and also in the WSJ, according to a spokesperson, “a report in the German newspaper Bild am Sonntag reporting Mr. Obama personally authorized the tapping of Ms. Merkel in 2010, and was briefed on it by Gen. Alexander, was false.”

High crimes and misdemeanors are not the only grounds for impeachment.Anyone acting deliberately to undermine the constitution and thereby trashing their oath of office should be removed; and that's just the beginning. Obama openly touts re-distribution of wealth or equality of things ... Obama should not even have been given a platform never mind actually become the POTUS. But here we are; in the midst of a whirlpool of power grabbing greed and cronyism .... ... a little uncomfortable to say the least; if you succumb to the fear tactics that the Marxocrats and mind-numbed RINO's inflict upon us. We are resilient Americans; and we don't put up with dictators. The choice before us is simple: dependence upon the Almighty State, or dependence upon the author of our freedoms and the one that speaks to the destiny of the U.S.A.; Almighty God. That's the war we're in.

I don't know why so many of BOTH Parties are reluctant to say that Obama lied. He has lied many times about many things. The fact that it is politics should not matter. The man and members of his administration are untruthful. They almost never take responsibility for what they have done . Our foreign relations are at an all time low. Obama is ruining the country. He is trying to being the lower class people to middle class without any effort from them.

Dont worry, even though the president tells us he knew nothing about this, he is really upset it happened, and he will definitely get the the bottom of it, just like he got to the bottom of ...So there is nothing to worry about here folks, move-on.

Part of the problem is that obama sees himself as the "idea man" who leaves the minions to actually implement his devine plans. He gives orders and expects them to be carried out without his having to do any work beyond promoting the idea.

Obama is clueless abouot the values of most Americans. He believed the propaganda his mother and grandparents spouted and was always treated like a little prince. He did not realize the president is expected to do some work in exchange for all the percs. The "spying" on friendly governments has always happened and the other governments have known that. That Obama claims he didn't know is either a symbol of his lying or of his do nothing presidency. Foreign leaders are probably laugning at himi. He is a lazy, good for nothing person who was elected by a lot of uninformed voters. His idea of being president is using the percs, playing golf or basketball when HE FEELS LIKE IT, and making speeches. He has never stopped running for office. The US under Nixon or other maligned former presidents at least had the respect of other nations. Under Obama we don't even have that.

Funny how every time the administration get's caught in some political shenanigans, there's a "rogue" IRS or a "rogue" ATF or a "rogue" NSA behind the mischief. As for Obama's apparent lack of control, President Jarrett was right in her interview. "He's bored", but not in the sense of someone whose potential isn't being challenged, but in the sense of someone who is lazy. That gray hair comes from exasperation of being expected to work.
